[Zope] DTML Doc property from DTML Method in tag

[Richard Wackerbarth]

this is my structure:

Folder 'HERE' has Folders within it.
Assume that they have ids ID1, ID2, ID3, etc.
Each of these Folders has a property 'common_name'

Thus, in HERE/ID1 can reference <!--#var common_name--> and get 'Name 1'.

In HERE, I execute a form. The checkboxes build a list ids ['ID1', 'ID2'].
Processing the form,
<!--#var ids--> gives me the list.
<!--#in ids--><!--#var sequence-item--><!--#/in--> gives 'ID1' on the
first iteration. But I want to get 'Name 1'
